Pauly D’s Favorite Book Is a Shocker...

As much as we love the Jersey Shore cast, “enlightened” isn’t the first adjective that springs to mind when we describe them. But maybe we should know better — after all, Vinny has a self-help book about conquering anxiety, and Snooki is enjoying the joys of motherhood. Still, we were surprised to learn what Pauly D’s favorite book is in this Q&A with Star magazine (via RadarOnline). As he describes The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle, “It’s about living life fully in the present, which I really try to take to heart.”The Power of Now is a hugely popular book on spirituality, meditation, and mindfulness. We wouldn’t be surprised if Vinny, with his “Let Go, Let God” tattoo philosophy, was the one who recommended Tolle’s tome to Pauly. We’re happy to hear about this, though, because Pauly needs to do something to conquer his OCD!
